However would say August looks meh |

| Right, so. Muss isn't doing these for a while for thoroughly understandable reasons, which include a temporary aversion to "spreadshitin'" (love it). I on the other hand love my spreadsheets, so I'm happy to take these over on a temporary basis until Muss feels in a good enough headspace to start running them again. I won't be calculating previous rounds or anything: I'll leave that to a recovered Muss. Nor will I be calculating overall scores and that. However, if people are willing to let me just run them on a month-by-month basis for now, I'm happy to. Can even make a mini "Balla-season" if Muss would rather I didn't interfere with his shenanigans.
If you are willing, the games I'm thinking about doing this month are Xenoblade 3, Live-A-Live, Digimon Survive, and Time on Frog Island. I'm up for other suggestions though: the first two are pretty set in stone, the other two are me being unable to see anything else in Mas' thread of interest that isn't DLC or a re-release. I might have missed something! |

Stray I'd like to have done, as 1st big new PlayStation Plus Essential game and its currently most wishlisted game on STEAM but will do Frog if need be |

| Frog Island has reviews as it's now out, seems like a 7/10 sort of game. Anyway going to have some guesses - Spoiler:
Xenoblade 3, right banger from Nintendo and likely a GOTY contender at a few outlets 88
Live A Live, looks great but feels a tad old and the whole 8 characters was a fresh idea not so much now with Octopath 76
Stray, Annapurna continues to have a good 2022 with this getting a 82
Digimon Survive, best Digimon game in years maybe ever but doesn't quite get past 80

| Mas! Just slapped the spoiler on there. You know the (unwritten) rules! Anyway yes, let's go with those four. Stray - releases July 19th PlayStation/Steam game about a cat. Steam anticipation seems high.Live-A-Live - releases July 22nd Old JRPG gets fresh lick of paint. It was pretty revolutionary for the time though.Digimon Survive - releases July 29th The Duke Nukem Forever of Digimon games, this is finally nailed on for a release date. Hopefully. Features 'social links' to level up your Digimon, and quite a bit of talky stuff.Xenoblade Chronicles 3 - releases July 29th Balla's GotY.- My guesses:
Stray - Heck knows, guess everyone's looking forward to it and there must be something there. 82
Live-A-Live - The original was actually dunked on a bit for being ugly (well that'll be remedied) and short (probably won't be). This pretty-up will I'm sure get some points for nostalgia, but people might not love it so much as a Yoko Shimomura soundtrack would suggest. 79
Digimon Survive - Oh God knows. Could go either way. Cyber Sleuth got (a kind) 75, so I'll say this goes slightly better since it looks nice. 77
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 - 1 got 92 and the series probably won't scale those heights again. 2 got 83 but this looks better: Matt Castle gave it a glowing preview. 89

| - Meow:
Stray - 81% I can see this charming everyone but maybe being a little lacking in depth gameplay wise, the hype for this has put a lot of pressure on it.
Live-a-Live - 78% Definitely an interesting prospect, I'm interested just to see what it's all about but there's a good chance it won't age too well to make it an instant classic.
Digimon Survive - 73% These tend to sit around the 7/10 and I see no reason why this should change that.
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 - 87% I've still yet to dip my toe in the Xenoblade waters but I'm expecting big things from this one, Balla's GotY and likely a lot of other people's.

| Cheers Smurf! Everybody else (especially Buska, natch): Stray's review scores will probably be making an appearance soon, so (with apologies for the late start) you might want to get your guesses in! |

| No worries, you've not been on here! It's everybody else I'm a bit anditookthatpersonally.gif about. Did I put this up too late? Did Muss not actually want me to caretake, and he told everyone but me? I'll still tally up Smurf and Mas and myself, but... yeah. ![Aww!](/users/4111/31/13/97/smiles/1508216586.gif) |

| DO NOT TAKE IT PERSONALLY - I think (a) what Smurf said, because it stopped for a bit people might've missed it out, (b) there's a lot of scrollage about and it may be that people were looking for a Muss avatar, (c) I ain't been here for weeks anyway there's too much real world shit going on |

| Well, I hope that's accurate. Scores for this month:
Stray - 84. People really did fall for the lil kitty. So did I, to be frank - none of us quite appreciated how much people were going to like this. Live-A-Live - 82. It's survived the test of time! Either that or nostalgia and a pretty veneer have papered over the cracks. Again, one we all undershot: I was closest at three away. Digimon Survive - 80. Despite the controversy over its genres, with the critics Survive has come out trumps, just. Mas got this one bang on. Xenoblade Chronicles 3 - 88. This month's top game. Was there any doubt? Smurf and I were one point away, but again Mas smashed it.
And the results: Mas: 2-6-0-0 8 Balla: 2-3-3-1 9 Smurf: 3-4-7-1 15
Mas walks away with two dead on and victory in this one-off round! Smurf meanwhile is left thanking his stars that this won't contribute to anything larger, having low-balled them all. Thanks so much to the two of you for participating! |
